According to DPS, a 2024 gray Dodge 350 pickup truck was traveling westbound, and a 2022 blue Chevrolet Equinox was heading eastbound in the westbound “improved shoulder.”

Troopers noted that the Equinox driver was on the wrong side of the road.

At some point, the driver of the pickup truck swerved to avoid a head-on collision, DPS said.

Despite the effort, DPS said the driver of the Equinox struck the truck’s front panel. The collision caused injuries to both drivers.

The Equinox driver, identified as Brittany Ramon, 25, was pronounced dead at the scene. The other driver suffered minor injuries.

DPS said the crash investigation remains ongoing.
